Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the early-maturing group with a vegetation period from 116 to 120 days. It was created to increase crop productivity and improve fiber quality indicators, including its strength and spinning capacity.

During trials, the variety demonstrated a yield at the level of the Chirpan-539 standard and fiber quality indicators exceeding the Avangard-264 standard, in particular due to a lower micronaire value and a high consistency index.
